Mike Tyson, a former heavyweight boxing champion, is getting ready to face off against YouTuber Jake Paul this summer. In an interview with Fox News, Tyson shared his thoughts on the upcoming match and what viewers can expect to see in the boxing ring.
Despite the fight being labeled as such, Tyson clarified that it is more of an exhibition match rather than a full-blown fight. As he explained, the rules and regulations for an exhibition match differ greatly from those of a professional fight. However, this doesn't mean that the match will be any less intense. "This is called an exhibition," Tyson stated. "But if you look up exhibition, you will not see any of the laws that we are fighting under. This is a fight."
Tyson also addressed the notion that Paul may have an advantage due to his age and speed. He confidently stated that he doesn't believe Paul is faster than him, referencing a YouTube video of Paul at 16 years old doing "weird dances." Tyson made it clear that the person he will be facing in the ring is not the same as the one in the video. "This guy's gonna come, he's gonna try to hurt me, which I'm accustomed to, and he's gonna be greatly mistaken," Tyson said.
Despite his bold statements, Tyson did admit to feeling nervous and even scared leading up to the fight. However, he believes that as the date approaches, those feelings will subside. "Right now, I'm scared to death, but as the fight gets closer, the less nervous I become because this is reality, and in reality, I'm invincible," he shared.
When asked if he had any ill feelings towards Paul, Tyson replied, "No. I do not have no grudges against him. He's beautiful, and no, it's not from that perspective." It seems that Tyson is going into the fight with a clear mind and no personal animosity towards his opponent.
The fight, which is set to take place on July 20, will be streamed live on Netflix. The streaming platform is promoting the match with Most Valuable Promotions. The event will be held at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, which has a capacity of 80,000. Tyson, who is 57 years old, will be facing off against Paul, who is 27 years old. Tyson has an impressive record of 50 wins and 6 losses, while Paul, who goes by the nickname "The Problem Child," has a record of 9-1.
The highly anticipated match has been making headlines, with many fans eager to see Tyson come out of retirement and take on Paul. As Tyson boldly stated, "I plan to finish him." It's safe to say that this exhibition match will be one to remember.
